Abstract

In this article, we consider the stagnation point two-dimensional flow induced by a linear stretching surface in the streamwise direction. It is noticed that temperature dependent viscosity reduces the base flow velocity profiles and expands the temperature profile, but the gases viscosity nature has the opposite effect in both cases. Under moderate stagnation point flow the base flow profiles are all entrained near to the stretching surface and the effects of variable viscosity decreases. The thermo-physical properties are temperature and concentration dependent. Numerical solution of the governing equations is then calculated by using a RK-five integration scheme alongside Newton-Raphson technique. All the obtained results are presented for the base flow profiles and physical interpretation has been given through figures. We calculate the results quoted by the authors and show excellent agreement with both their asymptotic predication and their results from the linear stretching sheet.
